NEURULATION
Is the developmental process of
neural plate, neural folds and
neural tube .
The notochord induces
ectodermal cells to
form neural plate.
The lateral edges of the neural
plate become more elevated and
form neural fold
The depressed midregion is
called neural groove.
Fused of neural folds and neural
plate changed into neural tube.
After 4 weeks, neural tube will
develop into primary brain
vesicles:
forebrain (prosencephalon)
midbrain (mesencephalon)

(rhombencephalon)

PLACENTATION
Is the process of forming the
placenta.
Functions:
as the site of exchange of
nutrients and
wastes between mother and
fetus.

LABOR / PARTURITION
Gestational period: averages 266 days
(this is time post conception; 280
days post LMP)
Parturition: the act of giving birth
3 stages of labor:
1.Dilation:
-6-12h (or more in first child);
begins with regular
uterine contractions and ends with
full dilation of
cervix (10cm)
2.Expulsion:
-full dilation to delivery minutes

The fetal lower limb are presented to the birth canal rather
than normal cephalic (head-first) position (presentation).
